Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 131/72, 643/1837 quickly i.e. 84233 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 131/72, 643/1837 is 84233.
LCM(131/72, 643/1837) = 84233
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 131/72,643/1837
Formula to find LCM of Fractions is
LCM = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators
As per the formula LCM of Fractions let’s split into two parts and find the LCM of Numerators and GCF of Denominators
In the given fractions LCM of Numerators means LCM of 131,643
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 131,643 is 84233.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 72,1837 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 72,1837 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 131,643
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 84233
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 131,643 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,643) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,643) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(131,643) = ( 131 × 643 ) / 1
LCM(131,643) = 84233 / 1
LCM(131,643) = 84233
Lets's calculate GCF of 72,1837
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 84233/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 131/72,643/1837 is 84233
